[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThaRealSaad:
Hi everyone,

I'm planning on buying a new phone my budget is not limited but OnePlus 2 checks all the boxes I need in a smart phone? I'm pretty excited to get this phone however when I went online on GSMArena a lot of people were reporting overheating issues and freezing of the phone. Can anyone tell me if the phone overheats on latest stock OTA as of 14th Feb because I really want to buy this phone in the coming 2 or 3 days.

Thanks.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Naprzod:
No. With stock thermal file you could have poor performance on HQ games after a while. If you changed it you can avoid the a57 cores to turn off or under clock a lot. I play real racing 3 30m+ without underclocking (for temp reasons) 100mhz. With stock freqs for more than 30m+ ( I don't continue playing so I don't know how many it will take to underclock). I use thermal extreme file with 3°+. Of course it gets hot. But no problem for me, all phones gets hot while gaming or under heavy tasks, I can live with that. My nexus 5 gets hotter and quicker. Also I played vainglory for almost 2 hours and no undercloking either.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bjscott55:
You should be fine I've had this phone for about two months and id say at best it gets warm when gaming the only time its ever got hot was when i was in a very hot room with the sun light hitting the phone but i was playing a driving game for 1 hour plus at this point so fair enough that it did get hot.

But id say 100% of the time when im not gaming it never gets hot im on stock 2.2.0

For just going on facebook and normal apps it never gets warm even most games it only gets sightly warm at best unless your really hamming it for a long time it will never get hot. you'll be fine for £289 you really can't go wrong i love this phone once MM is out and full dev support it out going to get even better!

Hello guys,

I just wanted to share my modified CLK-Kernel from this Rom with you. I modified the boot.img as described here.

When you Flash this kernel, your SD-ext Partition is mounted as /data from the beginning of the Boot-Process which is way more stable than the other Solutions.

Credits are going to tytung for his kernel and ph03n!x for his method.

I know this is posted in the wrong section, But I can't post into the NAND-Development Section yet. Please move.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] egandt:
Lets say I want to enable disk access to "drives" (a great software product to display dive space utilization), I can not do so there is no way to do so as I get a message "Screen Overlay detected", of course it is detected I have over 10 apps that require it, if I disable it they do not work PERIOD. so I need to have it enabled, nut then I have many apps that simply do not support Marshmallow (6.0) at all as a result. I can not understand why there are not more complaints and fixes for this as I'm basically stuck I have apps that require overlay including my dialer and I have apps I need that I can not use if overlay is enabled!

One work around I heard of was to boot into safe mode and run the apps there, but in safe mode I can not run any third party apps (so I can not execute those that I need to overlay disabled to set a permission.

I need help, either to fix the overlay prompt (simply put at this point security be damned I'll live without it I need the software to function), but searching and searching I've yet to see any solution or even suggestion beyond safe mode, which does not let me execute the software I need to fix, other than down grading (which does not help since at some point I'll need to move to 6.X), how does one fix the very annoying and Android breaking issue of overlay? :confused:

I just do not understand how Overlay a very necessary feature is also able to break many apps, including a few that require overlay themselves. I'm completely confused and sick of wasting time (hours at this point trying to figure out how to get around this).

Thanks,

[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Comando156:
Just switched to metropcs and got myself a SM-G530T1. I have searched for an hour for a working root to this rom... with no success. I also discovered there is no ODIN flashable firmware available for download.

I am aware there is a method that works by ODIN flashing the firmware of T-Mobile SM-G530T [AOF8] and then rooting with ShinySides [AOF8] kernal... but doing this removes some native functionality and adds t-mobile bloat ware.

So I am looking for either a working Temp root or Perm root for the SM-G530T1 [AOH9], Android 5.1.1, Baseband: G530T1UVU1AOH9.

And then I will be working on creating a ODIN flashable backup firmware of this version for others. Just need help with step one.. rooting.

Nice post. I tried using this method but got a fail in Odin: Received his msg on the phone: Custom binary blocked by frp lock. When i tried flashing ShinySides [AOF8]. Could you please advise how to bypass the FRP Lock.

[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Franzferdinan51:
I think you can flash the metro firmware thru Odin and that MIGHT fix it I've Gotten mixed messages about it me personally i never experienced the issue though
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crookpot:
Damn. So no real reliable root for the SM-G530T1 without using T-Mobile firmware?

I just bought it today assuming it would be as easy as all the other Samsungs I've owned in the past.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lee_Garington:
Just make sure your oem unlock is marked (YES) In developers options. This means your phone can be unlocked to flash firmware or recoveries and such... this is not to be confused with carrier unlocked though. This should help with the frp problem. as far as the "flashing of firmware through odin" the firmware that is available for the metropcs variant is designed to be odin flashable exclusively. If it isn't working than either you have an a faulty firmware package or a firmware pacage that I'm not aware of.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billdz:
Reactivating an old thread, have there been any updates to the situation since the last post in 5/16? I need to root my G530T1. Is there a safe method?
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billdz:
I assume no replies mean there is still no safe way to root? Any other way to get rid of unwanted carrier and Google apps?
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartan987:
if you want to root it still just download SM-G530T1 A0H9 stock firmware ill send you the link if you need it, download stock firmware you have now for backup, download the stock firmware for the SM-G530T A0F8 and the root kernel for the SM-G530T here: https://xdaforums.com/grand-prime/development/kernel-root-root-sm-g530t-5-1-1-t3203476?nocache=1 you will also need the newest version of odin to do this. So first flash the A0H9 stock firmware and then the A0F8 firmware to change it to t-mobile and then that root kernel and you should be fine. If you run into any problems flash the stock firmware you had when you started.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billdz:
Thanks for the reply. I managed to root the phone a couple of months ago but it did not do me that much good. I still can't delete the unwanted carrier and Google apps, and I can't get apps to download automatically to the SD card instead of the device. Is there any way to get rid of the bloatware?

Or how can i fix it, i check the EFS carpet but it doesnt have anything and im currently searching for the .nv_data to maybe do a new one for mi phone.

Thank you all

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] painiac:
If I'm not mistaken, the contents of that partition are unique to your phone. Restoring from someone else's won't work or help you.

Try using Odin to flash the BOK3 Factory Restore image. It will delete everything and reset your phone; provided you have a valid SIM card, the phone should then regenerate your IMEI
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BananaSplash:
Yeah it should work, but no, it doesn't, and I heard that the information can be changed to build your own one.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BananaSplash:
Or can you tell me how to restore it in AP, CSC, BT? i alreade flashed it on AP but it doesn work.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrkruse:

You flashed this G900VVRU2BOK3_G900VVZW2BOK3_G900VVRU2BOK3_HOME.tar.md5 in odin in the AP section and it failed?

---------- Post added at 10:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:00 PM ----------

here is the 16gb S5 pit file Load it in the PIT section then load the BOK3 tar image in the AP section make sure under options that repartion is checked. If it fails pull battery try again plug cable into different port on computer maybe try different cable. If it still fails you dont have a verizon s5
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BananaSplash:
Yeah, im really sure, thats a lil bit weard that it doesnt work, i was tinking if i can downgrade to kitkat, what doy you think about it?

I already do that and install the pit and the firmware and then i realize that Odin its saying that is a Firmware update and no a restoration and when the s5 starter back like if it was an actualization.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrkruse:
If you cant flash the above firmware then you can't flash anything verizon. Are you sure you dont have one of the Verizon partner phones as they take different firmware. What build does it say you have on the phone?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BananaSplash:
LRX21T.G900VVRU2BOK3

And if i pull the battery the model is G900V and on the back cover says Verizon 4G.

Did you try the pit file and the tar image like I told you above
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BananaSplash:
i think that i found the problem after read a lot of post and unkowing this, i´ve passing this like nothing but my phone isnt activated by verizon. there is a way to activate it without calling verizon or puting a verizon sim? im not currently living in US so i can buy a verizon sim card and activate it, -.- , so i have a s5 that i cant use, so i got a rock, right?

That still doesnt address the fact you cant flash verizon official firmware
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] painiac:
If you don't have a SIM card in, you're not going to have any useful IMEI data. The SIM is what allows the phone to communicate with Verizon's network. What were you planning to do with a phone without activating it?

Yeah i already flashed the stock, but i didnt even get a registration imei so that's why I can't get data and all of that's stuff. Did you know how to activate it without a Sim card.?

Verizon phones arent sim locked just put a sim in there
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BananaSplash:
yeah but it need to be activated so if you haven´t activated the s5 can´t conect to the network or at least its what i read in some text, thats weard but im going to try tomorrow, and im going to tell you how it went.

thank you all :good:
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrkruse:

yeah it doesnt even work, there have to a way to activate it, well i already install the pit and the official Tar.md5, but it doesnt work, did you know if i can downgrade to KitKat it should work, or not?

Recovering IMEI And Data Connection After Flashing WRONG Root Package Intended For I9300:

Make sure you have Samsung Kies or the Samsung USB Driver installed on your PC.

Download and Extract: Odin3 3.04.zip - 457.11 KB to your PC if you don't already have it.

Download and Extract: Param_Bin_I9305.zip - 612.14 KB to your PC.

With your Phone Switched Off, press and hold: 'VOL DN' + 'HOME' + 'POWER' to enter Download Mode.

Connect your phone to your PC via USB Cable and start Odin.

Check your phone is connected by seeing if a COM Port in a Blue box is present under ID:COM.

Press the 'PDA' Button and select the 'Param_Bin_I9305.tar.md5' file you extracted from the Zip Archive earlier.

Press the 'Start' Button and wait for it to finish flashing. If successful, you will see a Green Box with 'PASS!'.

Wait for your phone to reboot then go to your Dialer and press: *#06#. You should now see your IMEI and your Data Connection will be back.

but this is for an s3, and is talking about param_bin that should be tha NON-HLOS.bin, or i am wrong?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrkruse:
Dude I have no Idea what your doing. I9305.tar.md5 what is this this is not for the s5. I9305.tar.md5 This cam from nothing I gave you
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BananaSplash:
OK, firstly thanks for all your help.

-The Pit file that you give me I already flash it and it didnt work.

-I tried to flash the official firmware, and it didn't work.

-And already flash both of them together.

-I already tried with a Verizon SIM, and it didn't work.

-Already flash the modem and it didn't work.

And with the text that I put on the previous message, is from a guy that solve this but flashing a param_bin.

But in the s5 we dont have param.bin, but we have a NON-HLOS.bin.

So, I already have the same problem. I doesn't have the .nv_data.

And I'm currently Root in the BOK3 version. And I don't know what to do.

How did i know if i have a developers edition? that would change something?

I wonder if its possible to re-map memory to flash

really there isn't much public info on the state of kexec and what has/has not been tried or done

last I heard got the kernel to initialize but it was hanging at boot ... after that everybody sorta dropped

if you could map some of the memory to a flash partition you could walk it as it boots and get a better idea on whats going on
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] signupstuffid:
I'm still on this phone because it has the features I want with an unlocked BL. If the Nexus 6 had a removable SD card, battery, IR, and some of the Samsung features like side sync and multiwindow, I'd use it instead.

Also if the S5, or Note 3 BL proof of concept unlock ever gets released, I'd get either one.

One thing I'm currently looking at is removing all the google bits that are not part of the AOSP, and basically making the Phoenix ROM like a S4 would be if it only had Samsung's software on it.

I like the direction stang, and klabit are going to add as many features as possible from the newer Samsung phones to the S4.

UPSM is a boon to the day to day use of this phone, as is fast charge and the new kernel.

The only thing I could really wish for is that all the new features could be optional and selectable at install like some of them are in the Phoenix port.

I believe that the Chinese variants are this way because of the ban on google services in China.

I don't want to remove the google services for the reason China does. Just for battery life reasons, and the constant addition of features I don't want, or need.

I am slowing transitioning over to using mostly apps from the f-droid repository and side loading the few app only on the play store, backed up from another phone.

As far as telegram is concerned, it's not 100% secure in it's default configuration, if that is your main use of it.

I use another software that is currently still in beta called ring. It is cross platform as well as open source.

I'm also working on designing a 3d printed case for using an extended battery, Qi charging that is rugged and has a removable front S-view cover option.

When I get more 3d modeling of it done I'll put a link in my sig.

Dealing with OF1

Short of a real BL unlock for OF1, it looks like Stang5Litre's working TWZ ROMS are the best, if not only, real solution for those of us with locked BL's.

I've been running Stang's V2 and love it. With all the crapware and bloat removed, it's breathed new life into the S4. I seriously can see using this phone for another year or two.

If there was any way to strip the TWZ ROM down even further, that would be a wonderful thing. As is, I have all the motion, gesture, air views, voice control, and accessories options turned off. Never used them, never needed them, don't miss them, don't want them! :) I do have palm swipe for screen capture turned on, as that can be handy at times (Otterbox case makes pushing simultaneous buttons nearly impossible! LOL )

All the Dev's who contribute toward the continued improvement of the S4 deserve our thanks and gratitude!

If that were possible, that would GREAT! Would be so nice to get closer to AOSP and have only the features/apps that the individual user wants. And I have to believe a lot of S4 users would be very interested in that if they knew it existed.

Stang made some nice customization on his V2...putting screen shot and torch on the power menu. Getting rid of all that other TWZ crap would be icing on the cake!
